And Here We Are Today...

We covetted what we could not have
We stole the things we could not buy
We took what was not ours to take
and here we are today

We dreamt our impossible dreams
we ruined other peoples wonders
we discovered what was already discovered
and here we are today

We have ruined the future
We have forgotten the past
we have realized our realities
and he we are today

We have 'purified' people that were already pure
we have brought sin upon those who were not sinners
We challenged and change the laws we could not abide
and here we are today

We have kissed the unkissed maidens of the world
We have destroyed our sacred lands
We have diminished any god we have ever known
And Here We Are Today




I hope everyone liked it.  If you are wondering what it is about, it's about
all the things that stuck out in my mind through history through the years up
until the present which is the last section.  If you have any suggestions, as
to how to improve on this piece, I would like to hear them...
